15. What's wrong with groover

Soooo...the other day I went and bought a new cycling jersey since i'm riding a whole lot more now...for some reason this one here just caught my attention...I think it's awesome...
Super Grover!
So I walk up to the register to purchase the jersey when I notice the cashier "eye-ing" me...My initial reaction; "sweet...must be the new cologne, deodorant, mouthwash, form fitting designer jeans (haha) or combination thereof." Goes without saying that I'm flattered when she starts up a conversation....
Cashier: So I haven't seen you shop here before- do you come in often?
Me: No not really, I've been meaning to come in since you have all kinds of great stuff....I'm going to make it a point to come in more though. (nice andrew)
Cashier: Well you should, you never know what you'll find- do you bike a lot?
Me: Well just lately I have been, I enjoy it, plus this jersey is really cool!
Cashier: Yeah I figured you biked, you can tell by the physique (point andrew!), and since you were buying this jersey, which I think is really cute...(point andrew again)...
Cashier: I hate to be so forward at work, but i'm wondering; are you seeing anyone?
(BAM! ANDREW...MOVE IN FOR THE KILL.....)
Me: Oh no no, that's an okay question and no i'm not...why do you ask? (of course I know why she's asking...she's sooo digging me)
Cashier: Oh!! that's great! because you see....my brother is really cute and likes to bike as well, he's smart, funny... maybe I can set something up?
Me: Well sure we can go out.....OH HANG ON- WHAT!?!?! Did you say your brother?!?!
Cashier: well yeah, he's really nice and bikes too, i'm sure you'll...OHHH...OH MY GOD I'M SO EMBARASSED...I THOUGHT YOU WERE GAY..
Me: hahaha...no, i'm not, but thanx for the ego boost in attractiveness....I think?
...................................
Just had to tell the story ya hear? Don't know what it is about the jersey but already it's been twice that i've been asked if I was gay...hmmm....funny times indeed.
Update:
Yesterday at work someone told me that the "G" in the middle stood for "Gay" - (what!?! how does that work? anything with a "G" on it means gay? haha) so instead I turned it around and said that instead it stood for "Gangsta" -oh yeah...gangsta grover...I like the sound of that
